Need Larger HD, made snapshot, redeployed to new instance Size Drive Size!

Hi:

We went from 40gb to 60gb drive size, I made a snapshot and upgraded with a new larger instance with 60gb hard drive but when I log in it seems the new instance just imaged an exact 40gb copy from the snapshot and did not leave 20gb available.

The new specs for the instance are all correct except HD size so can anyone help me out with this issue?

thanks in advance,

I have the same problem on Linux.

For anyone else who stumbles across this post ..

Case:

You have upgraded you instance in lightsail by using a snapshot of a smaller plan into a larger plan

You are on a linux based system

Solution

log into your instance with SSH, or terminal from dashboard

install the required tools (make sure you haven't reached your HDD capacity or else these tools can't be install.. you'll have to delete something else first)

sudo apt-get install -y cloud-utils fdisk

get the name of your main partition

df -h

the partition name concatenates the partition number after the name, starting with 'p', eg. /dev/acoden1p1. In this case, the partition name is /dev/acoden1, and it is partition 1.

resize the drive

sudo resize2fs /dev/acoden1p1

expand the partition (name, space, partition number)

sudo growpart /dev/acoden1 1

reboot the drive

reboot

Then after reboot, check the partition values

df -h

Your partition should now hopefully be the correct value
